Emo dumps Carver, the Carver site is down.

Bob's a workaholic, will he go back to selling hand-built tube amps on ebay? If Emo owns the patents, he'll have to modify his designs.

I'm proud owner of Sunfire. This amp beats the clap out of substantially higher priced and heavy ones.

good news for potential new customers, suck for current owners.

I don't think it was a bait and switch but it could be me being naive. That and my perspective is coming in from a consumer not a dealer who was mistreated. I've bought Emotiva gear in the past and it has been a pleasant non problematic experience. I just think this was Emotiva overreaching again, them not being able to make the acquisition work or handle it properly. Emotiva has so many products now and some of the quality has been so so from what I've read. Sometimes I wish they would just concentrate on a couple of things rather than spread themselves thin.

they will copy them and release them at a much lower price point after having them made in China.

Good! Can't beat lower prices with same quality.

Dealers just take your order and everything is drop ship these days ... don't stock anything so not sure how dealers are mistreated but just lose a product line.
